Sooji Fries Ingredients Overview
Making these sooji fries require just 7 pantry staple ingredients + water. The main ingredient is sooji aka semolina. We also add veggies like carrot and zucchini to up the fries’ nutritional game.

Richa’s Top Tips
You can use any neutral-flavored oil like vegetable, canola, sunflower or peanut to fry these fries. Make sure to keep the fries at about 3mm to prevent them from breaking apart during the frying process. Make sure to flip the fries half way through the process if you are making these in the air fryer.
These sooji fries will be over even before you can put them on the plate; they are that addictive! Serve these with your favorite dip for a fun snack for the whole family. Do leave me a comment if you try these and don’t forget to send photos over on my IG @my_foodstory.
